Evidence into the role of TGF-β1 in airway epithelial repair in asthma is still controversial. This study tested the hypothesis that the reduced TGF-β1 levels previously observed in paediatric asthmatic airway epithelial cells directly contribute to the dysregulated repair seen in these cells.

Vitamin D deficiency exacerbates house dust mite-induced inflammation and alterations in lung structure and function

Asthma exacerbations are heterogeneous conditions that involve the complex interplay between environmental exposures and innate and adaptive immune function

Vitamin D is involved in the regulation of the immune system and it may play a role in the development, severity and course of asthma and other allergic...

This study analysed the IgE binding patterns caused by house dust mite allergens in scabies endemic communities in Australia.
